700$ Build

[alphabeta]

My friend wanna build a gaming PC .. the budget is 700$ (USD) doesn't include monitor, peripherals or HDD.

it's gonna be just for gaming no video editing whatsoever .. so he need that maximum performance he can get

Mabey a 4th gen I5 or a a10-7***k and a amd R9280 or r9 290? this is so you could use the dual graphics with the apu.

Agreed with this kinda, except no apu. 

If you want more FPS get i3 and powerful gpu

If you want more processing power get i5

Both with H81 board to save moneyz. No pentiums with z97 please.

The reason I picked a apu insted of a Fx or i3 is because you can crossfire the apu and a amd gpu.

Edit: so more performance in games with Less cpu and more GPU, I also believe linus did a build log similar to this

Except you can't. Again you come in with your knowledge of nothing. APU crossfire only works with the r7 250 series cards which suck really bad and crossfiring them makes little to no sense.

go watch linuses video  on it, you could use other a10s http://www.cpu-world.com/info/AMD/Recommended_graphics_cards_for_AMD_dual-graphics.html and its the recommended, some people have done crossfire with  other cards as well.

also a r7 250 isnt that bad

r7 250 is bad enough that crossfiring it with apu still won't reach you fps high enough to touch even a simple r9 270, not to mention r9 280 or r9 290. I am glad you actually looked it up this time though.

Why do you keep posting videos to me. I know what they will say. r9 270 blows apu crossfire out of the water completely. athlon + r9 270 makes more sense than apu crossfire. you only buy apu in three cases: You don't plan to add a gpu. You want to buy an apu now and a gpu way down the line (not recommended). Or you are crazy.

I keep posting you to videos because I dont like talking to you and you can go refute the videos instead of me having to reply things like "mine is the popular choice" and also If the apu was a bad option y would Linus him self making a video on how to do it .

He was making a video about it to test it. does not mean it's good. He made a video about street by 50 by sms audio. And those really sucked.
